A company lined an email service provider called my-email.com to deliver company emails. The company stalled having several issues during the migration. A security engineer is troubleshooting and observes the following configuration snippet:

Which of the following should the security engineer modify to fix the issue? (Select two).
Correct Answer: B,D
The security engineer should modify the following to fix the email migration issues:
* Email CNAME Record: The email CNAME record must be changed to a type A record pointing to
192.168.1.10. This is because CNAME records should not be used where an IP address (A record) is
* required. Changing it to an A record ensures direct pointing to the correct IP.
* TXT Record for DMARC: The TXT record must be changed to "v=dmarc ip4:192.168.1.10 include com -all". This ensures proper configuration of DMARC (Domain-based Message Authentication, Reporting
& Conformance) to include the correct IP address and the email service provider domain.
* DMARC: Ensuring the DMARC record is correctly set up helps in preventing email spoofing and phishing, aligning with email security best practices.
